I got Boyd's riff as close as I could but it's a little sketchy because it's really hard to make out. The same with the chorus, it sounds like there might be some slight chord changes in there, but I got the basic structure of it down. Enjoy.

Code: Select all

Dave Matthews Band - Run While You Can (Vegas Soundcheck '07)


Mandolin riff (Boyd)
-------5-5-5-----------------------------------------------------
-------------6-6-6-------6-------------8-8-8-5-5-5-------8-6-----
-7-7-7-------------7-7-7---7-5-------------------------------7-5-
-------------------------------8-7-7-7-------------7-7-7---------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus - Dave ("let's make it...")
----------------------
----------------------
-10----------10-------
-10-----10---10-------
-8------x----8--------
--------8-------------

Dave riff at about 3:22

It sounds like the Taylor. Especially during the bit where he has his little guitar solo thing.

Thanks for the tab, but would anyone mind posting a video? I can't quite seem to get the timing right on boyds riff and a video would help out a lot. Thanks in advance for anyone willing.

I don't have a video camera right now, but I recorded myself playing the riff slow, and then at normal speed. So hopefully that will help

Hey, your tab looks close, but I think he plays two notes differently than you have tabbed. I think this sounds closer to what he plays (I play it down farther on the neck, but it's the same as yours, just a few notes different):

Code: Select all

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------10-10-10---------------------------------------------8-8-8-----------------------------
-------------------10-10-10------------10--------------------------9-9-9-------------9---------
-8-8-8-----------------------12-12-12-----12-10-8-7-7-7----------------10-10-10----10-8-7------
